Limited Warranty Decking

We provide a limited warranty for the quality of the Hardwood decking as to they are as advertised as delivered to site.

Under no circumstances shall Exterior Solutions Ltd be liable or in any manner responsible for any claim, loss or damage arising from any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, regardless of theory, including, without limitation, any loss of time or use or any inconvenience, or any punitive or exemplary damages.

The limited warranty is restricted exclusively to the damaged deck boards and it is Exterior Solutions Ltd’s choice and decision if they will repair the defect in question or if they will exchange the damaged part for new deck boards.

No consequential damages are covered and where new deck boards are offered in exchange for the damaged deck boards, no labour is included, neither to remove the damaged deck boards, nor to install the new deck boards – and not to dispose of the old deck boards. If it is deemed that a replacement is necessary, Exterior Solutions Ltd will deliver the substitute boards free of charge.

Due to the prolonged period of warranties then Exterior Solutions Ltd cannot guarantee that any future substitute deck board will be exactly the same quality, dimension, construction or finish. Exterior Solutions Ltd promise to endeavour, within reasonable means, to supply a quality, dimension, construction and a finish as close to the original as possible.

Exterior Solutions Ltd guarantee that the species will be the same as originally purchased (subject no legal restrictions have been implemented in the interim).

For any warranty to be valid it is a requirement that a professional fitter has been used at installation, no installation has taken place in wet-rooms and that during usage, normal conditions have prevailed and that due precaution has been taken. This means that there cannot have been any excess temperature or moisture, that regular maintenance has taken place and that suitable footwear and protection have been utilized.

The guarantee applies only to a defect covering 10% or more of the installed decking – independent if it been treated with hardwood decking oil. For the decking oil it is based on normal residential or commercial use and does not cover damage from spiked heels, pets, erosion, dents, and gravel, scratches from roller chairs or shifting furniture or improper maintenance.

For the decking oil, a specific document is issued and is addition to the mentioned clauses in this Limited Warranty. To ensure correct procedure as well as to enable us to take necessary actions to prevent and/or reduce the risk of subsequent problems, it is a must that the original invoice is presented together provided with the packs at the time of installation.

This warranty does not cover warping, surface checking, fissures, twisting, cupping or any movement in the timber.

Limited Warranty Flooring and Tiles

Limited Warranty ShouSugiBan and charred timber products

We do not provide a limited warranty for any of our charred timber products. Charred products cannot be warranted due to the nature of their manufacture. Charred timber is not exact and varies between every piece of timber. We do not advertise any durability, longevity or period of time for colour or finish retention.

Under no circumstances shall Exterior Solutions Ltd be liable or in any manner responsible for any claim, loss or damage arising from any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, regardless of theory, including, without limitation, any loss of time or use or any inconvenience, or any punitive or exemplary damages.

Exterior Solutions Ltd promise to endeavour, within reasonable means, to supply as per sample delivered, dimension, construction and a finish.

Exterior Solutions Ltd guarantee that the species, dimension and finish will be same as far as practicable as specified on a written purchase order which has been accepted by us.
